Austin Lounge Lizards

Home and Deranged (Blue Corn)

Following founding member Tom Pittman's departure from Austin's beloved Lounge Lizards in 2011, the future of the satirical outfit seemed uncertain after a three-decade run. On Home and Deranged, fellow founders Hank Card and Conrad Deisler haven't missed a beat. With Darcie Deaville and Bruce Jones filling out the Lizards' first LP since 2006's The Drugs I Need, the political and social wit remains timely and sharp, from the TSA-dedicated "Thank You for Touching Me There" to the false-flag flying send-up "Black Helicopters" and recent fan favorite "Too Big to Fail." "If I Saw You All the Time" and "I Lied" turn on more personal parodies. Eclecticism through folk styles emerges amid double entendres, rolling into a sea shanty for "My Bonnie Johnson" and cutting Tex-Mex for "Spelunking with Joe King Carrasco," featuring Carrasco himself providing spirited gritos. Still wonderfully absurd and necessarily pointed.
